good thoughts about sizing for the inseam
FirstGear TPG Escape Textile Motorcycle Pants :: New Enough, LTD
I'm thinking about getting these, anyone know anything about them?
I've been wearing mine for about a month now and really like them! They are on the warmish side with the liner in, but really nice and light (for still being a very sturdy, well padded pant) with the liner out.
Construction seems to be high quality, and they have a lot of adjustibility with the velcro waist straps.
The legs zip open to the knee, which is nice because you can put them on and get them off over large boots.
I've ridden in the rain with them once for about 1.5 hrs, and I stayed totally dry and warm.
Love the dry pocket on the right leg too, great place for cell/wallet when riding.
One note: New Enough says to order a size smaller than you think you need, but I disagree. This would be fine if you didn't wear them over pants, but since they are OVERPANTS, I'm not sure what they were thinking. I generally wear a size 34 waist, so I ordered these in 34. They fit fine with no pants under them, but were super tight with pants underneath. had to send them back and get a size 36 waist. They fit great, and the adjustable waist lets you take up or let out as you may need.
since you are in CA, how are they in 80-90 degree days?? good for commuting??
back from the dead - ok i would really like to get on me buying overpants for this summer.. any other opinions on OVERPANTS.. i need to wear jeans under them, so im looking for something that is a true overpant..
